From plastic pipes with their own hands.
Organizers - convenient storage devices
Even without special skills, you can easily make such useful crafts from plastic pipes with your own hands. Even very short cuts of different diameters will go into business. To work, you need a sharp knife and glue.
The drawing shows how to cut off one end of the pieces of pipes, so that you can then make a convenient organizer for writing trifles or bathroom accessories. It is only important to try to ensure that the angles are the same everywhere.
Then, the cuts of the workpiece are attached to a plane: a stand or a wall. If desired, you can paint the organizers or apply a pattern or ornament to them. And you can even paste photos of the most pleasant moments of life.
Using this algorithm, you can make other crafts from plastic pipes with your own hands: a creative shoe shelf, a sock keeper, a wine shelf. And if the cuts are made strictly horizontally, then you will get beautiful planters or flower vases.
Designer find - an armchair made of scraps of propylene pipes
A good owner will never lose anything. With a reasonable approach, every little thing will go into action, and through the efforts of a patient craftsman, amazing crafts from plastic pipes can turn out. With the help of the same knife and glue, a luxurious chair is easily made with your own hands.
In this case, pipe segments are cut to arbitrary lengths in large quantities. It is only important to observe the same dimensions of the longest supporting pieces.
Then the segments are glued along the length. The longest supporting pieces should be located at the same distance from one another. For armrests, the segments are prepared above those that make up the seat. And for the back you will need even longer ones.
It remains only to sew beautiful pillows and fill them with padding polyester or sheathe the foam parts of upholstered furniture with fabric.
Stool from scraps of polypropylene pipes
They say that the goal is cunning for fiction. This is the absolute truth! Only not a goal, but an economical person is able to invent something similar - to create amazing crafts from polypropylene pipes left after repair or construction, that is, practically from garbage. So, with his wise approach to life, he will never be naked.
For a stylish stool, you will need thin cut pipes of different lengths. Before work, you should make patterns according to paper drawings. Pipes with asymmetric bevels on both sides are cut along them and glued together along the length. The last cut is a reference, it will serve as a leg. Therefore, it is the longest and with a horizontal lower cut.
When all four side parts are assembled, they are fastened with corner trims. The bottom is assembled from short pieces with a horizontal cut at the top. The stool can be painted in any color, or you can leave it white - it all depends on the preferences of the master.
Fence flower beds or sandboxes
According to the same algorithm as chairs and stools are made, you can build other necessary things. It will be practically
Plastic pipes make excellent original fences in a summer cottage or in the courtyard of a country house. Moreover, you can use even the shortest trimmings of various lengths and thicknesses. They are fastened together along the length in the form of a miniature fence and dug around a flower bed or sandbox.
You can use glue to make such a creative fence. And it will be even more interesting if the trimmings are tied with wire, imitating a wattle fence.
Children's Corner
If you apply your imagination, you can create interesting crafts from polypropylene pipes that will delight your beloved children. Cool laptop stands and easels, canopies over a crib and playhouse frames are easy to assemble with fittings and tees.
You can strengthen the joints with additional glue, and cover the product with paint and varnish. And you can decorate the top of the craft with stickers or ornaments.
Greenhouse for summer cottage
It is difficult to list all the crafts made of plastic with their own hands created by master dreamers. But not to mention such a necessary and useful structure as a greenhouse is the height of imprudence.
For construction, you need to protect the allocated place with boards or bricks and dig pins around the perimeter. Their diameter should be slightly less than the pipes used.
Now you can start designing. Therefore, the next step is to fix the pipe sections on the pins in the form of arches. To do this, first, the ends of the pipes are put on the racks on both sides. Then you can additionally attach the pipe from below with a strip of tin to the perimeter of the fence.
You can add structural rigidity with the help of several pipes, which should be placed perpendicular to the arches. The intersections are crosswise tightened with wire or strong tow.
Now it remains only to stretch the film on the structure - and the greenhouse is almost ready.
Coffee table with curly legs. Master Class
Plastic pipe (PVC) crafts are amazing design work. For example, the original one with a glass top and curved legs will become a real attraction of the home.
Of course, first of all, you should carefully consider, calculate and draw out all the details of the future model of plastic pipe crafts. It is not difficult to build drawings with your own hands if the master has a skill in this regard. Otherwise, you can use the ready-made, which is offered here. Sizes are taken randomly.
The legs of this table are arched. To add rigidity to the pipe, you need to reinforce it. For these purposes, a strong wire is suitable. The master on the desktop draws a life-size shape of one arch and lays the first piece of pipe with a rod inside. Then he gives the arch the desired shape. The same should be done with the second segment. Although you can use a cardboard template to give the desired shape.
Then, on the table, the shape of the holder arch is drawn, on which the tabletop will lie. Here, too, it is appropriate to use a template. Holders are made according to the algorithm described above.
It is best to connect the legs to the tabletop holders with tees. For greater fixation, you can coat the joints with glue or cement. The design, assembled from scraps of PVC pipes, is painted in the desired color. The glass can be glued to the holders to prevent it from slipping. Although it will be quite appropriate in this model.
In general, many other useful and beautiful things can be made from pieces of polypropylene pipes, you just have to think carefully and apply your manual skills and diligence.

With skill and a rich imagination, interesting and useful things can be made from any materials at hand, including plastic pipes.
Plastic pipes of different diameters are sold at any hardware store at very affordable prices. They are used in plumbing, sewerage, heating, irrigation systems, and after construction or repair, unnecessary trimming often clogs the site, while it can serve as an excellent material for creative crafts.
Do not rush to take construction waste to the landfill - we will tell you what can be done from a plastic pipe to turn excess residue into beautiful and functional interior items.
What is good plastic pipe?
We will not talk about the direct purpose of the product, but about the convenience of using varieties of plastic pipes precisely as a material for crafts. Plastic pipes are light weight, strong and durable enough. They are resistant to dirt, do not collect dust and are easy to clean. Products made of plastic pipes are safe to use even by small children (they do not break, do not have a heavy weight, do not emit toxins).
For creative work, PVC pipes are more often used, which are quite rigid and easily connected with special nozzles and "adapters", allowing you to get collapsible structures. Polypropylene pipes can also be used, but their connection will require a special welding machine or compression fittings, and finished products can no longer be disassembled.
Methods for connecting pipes in structures
From plastic pipes, you can make not only convenient household items, but also pieces of furniture. In order for such a home-made product to last a long time and be reliable in operation, care must be taken to properly connect the individual segments. Since it has already been said about the connection of polypropylene pipes, we will consider the connection of only PVC pipes.
PVC plastic pipes can be connected in the following ways:
- in a bell with a rubber seal;
- with the help of an adhesive composition;
- bolts by drilling holes.
The first connection method is characterized by simplicity, but insufficient rigidity. Before joining, it is recommended to clean the internal and external surfaces of the pipes at the joint from dust particles and treat the inserted part of the pipe with silicone grease. First, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops, after which it is carefully pulled back by 0.7 - 1 cm. The structures assembled in this way can later be dismantled, which is convenient for seasonal products.
The second method of assembling pipes is distinguished by reliable fixation and greater labor intensity. Work on connecting parts begins with the processing of the mating surfaces of the socket and pipe with sandpaper for better adhesion. Then they must be degreased with methylene chloride. The adhesive composition is applied along the entire length of the prepared outer surface of the pipe and 2/3 of the length of the inner surface of the socket. Finally, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops and rotated a quarter of a turn. For gluing, it is required to press the parts for 1 minute. For good fixation, all operations to connect two segments must be carried out quickly enough. The connected elements are left for several hours until the adhesive composition dries completely.
The third method is more time consuming, as it requires marking and preparing holes, but allows you to get collapsible structures with a reliable connection.
For corner joints and connecting several segments at once in one node, it is convenient to use a variety of fittings. Plastic pipe structures can be of any complexity using numerous tees and fittings. Consider useful homemade products in order of increasing complexity of execution.
Original and functional little things for decorating the interior
Our review of interesting ideas is opened by the simplest products from a plastic pipe, which even novice masters of homemade art can make. In addition, such crafts require a minimum amount of material, and in some cases even the shortest trimmings can be used.
From scraps of pipes of large and medium diameter, you can make a convenient and practical organizer for your office or workshop.
There are two options available here:
- fastening with self-tapping screws to a wall or table, for which one end of the segment is cut off at an angle - a stationary option;
- gluing the segments together to form a stable figure is a portable option.
The segments can be left white or gray, or you can paint it in your favorite color. Such an organizer is indispensable for schoolchildren and people involved in creativity and needlework. With him, everything will always be at hand, and on the table - the perfect order.
Additional comfort on the desktop will be provided by a drawing tablet and a laptop stand, which can be made from small-diameter polypropylene pipes.
Bookshelves are a special element of the interior. Their presence in a certain way characterizes the landlord. High-tech style corner shelf will not go unnoticed.
From numerous short cuts of different diameters, you can make a patterned frame for a mirror or photograph. It is enough to glue the cut rings according to a pre-prepared layout, which can be applied to a sheet of cardboard. It can be floral patterns or something abstract. The dimensions of the frame will depend on the amount of suitable material.
Scraps of large diameter can be used to create a comfortable shoe shelf with numerous compartments-cells. This design will not take up much space in the corridor and will ensure proper storage of shoes and a quick search for the right pair. The elements are connected using glue or self-tapping screws. To fix the shelf on the wall, you can use a plywood sheet, to which the assembled shelf is first glued.
Some crafts made from PVC pipes will really appeal to lovers of fresh flowers. A reliable flower stand is simple in execution and looks pretty.
For the manufacture of flower pots for transplanting or breeding pets, small pieces of sewer pipes are well suited. Having shown imagination, such pots can be decorated with colored paper, paint or bright stickers.
It is easy to make a stylish vase for artificial flowers and dried flowers from elongated cylinders of medium diameter. If you approach the implementation of this idea creatively, then an original gift for a significant event can come out.
Another extraordinary idea for the interior is homemade techno-style lamps. There are a lot of execution options, but they all adhere to the principle of minimalism: no unnecessary details.
With the help of unused scraps, you can also make useful things in the hallway or corridor: a hanger for clothes and bags and a holder for garbage bags.
Crafts from plastic pipes for the playground
From PVC pipes, you can make a lot of crafts for children's entertainment in the yard: a developmental rug, an arena, a swing, a sled, a football goal, a playhouse, an outdoor shower and a theater screen.
A very useful design for kids is a playpen made of PVC pipes.
Kids will love the lightweight swing that dries instantly after a warm summer rain.
In winter walks, homemade sleds will be the most reliable and fastest. The design is quite complicated, but with the help of practical videos you can figure it out.
For active games in the yard, safe football goals can be made from the remnants of plastic pipes.
Many children often dream of their castle in miniature. Making your childhood dreams come true is quite simple and not at all expensive. The frame is done very quickly. It remains to pick up a beautiful dense material for the roof and walls, and the house is ready!
The following structure will help to freshen up on a hot summer day. Such an open shower will be a joy not only for children, but also for adults.
From polypropylene pipes you can make a theatrical screen. It is enough to collect 3 frames, connect them together and close them with beautifully designed curtains. The home theater develops the creative abilities of children and creates good conditions for an exciting pastime.
We update the interior economically: furniture made of plastic pipes
Crafts from plastic pipes with their own hands can occupy a key place in the interior. Craftsmen share many extraordinary solutions that can significantly save the family budget. Let's highlight the brightest of them.
The most common and sought after piece of furniture is a chair. Using pieces of plastic pipes and connecting elements, you can make high-quality chairs of various types: children's chairs, folding chairs for hiking and fishing, armchairs and even high chairs.
Having mastered the assembly technique a little, you can proceed to more complex structures. A neat bunk crib made of polypropylene pipes is a good alternative for a country house or cottage, when buying a ready-made crib is too expensive. Moreover, when the kids grow up, the material can be used to make other useful crafts.
The glass coffee table with a PVC pipe base in the next photo can hardly be called an amateur homemade product, because it looks like a design work.
Another original idea is a shelving unit for a hallway or living room. Having independently designed a rack with the right number of shelves of the required size, you can not waste time shopping in search of something suitable.
Useful crafts for a country house and a summer residence
Unused and superfluous building materials will definitely find application in the summer cottage. Crafts from plastic pipes for summer cottages will significantly facilitate garden work, make your stay more comfortable and help you avoid high material costs. At the same time, the designs look neat and stylish.
From small lengths and a few tees, you can get a nice dryer for clothes and towels. It is easy to clean and does not corrode.
Relaxing by the pool or in the shade of the garden is impossible to imagine without a sun lounger. The photo shows a chaise lounge, completely consisting of plastic pipes, but can also be combined with dense matter.
A carport is another useful application of PVC pipes. It will protect transport not only from a rain, but also from the scorching summer sun.
For garden decor, a garden arch is often used, which can also be made of plastic pipes. A new element appears in its design - bent arcs. You can bend pipes for an arched vault by heating with a gas burner or boiling water. You can also put the pipe on a metal rod and, sticking one end into the soil, bend it in an arc. This method requires some physical effort.
A simple and light gazebo will decorate the garden and protect from the sun and light rain. For the presented option, it is enough to fix a waterproof raincoat fabric on the pipes and bend them on reinforcing bars. To make the design reliable, you need to take care of good fixation of the rods in the soil.
The range of application of plastic pipes is truly huge and limited only by your imagination and needs. You need a small woodcutter, a gate, a cart or a fishing rod stand - take the required amount of pipe and bring your idea to life.
It is easy to make a convenient feeder for chickens from sewer pipes. It is very convenient to pour grain with it without going into the corral. Chickens cannot rake grain in such feeders, which saves feed.
A small greenhouse in a summer cottage can also be made from plastic pipes. The easiest option: make a rectangular frame and cover it with a film or agrofibre.
A more serious construction - a seasonal greenhouse - will require more time and material. It is better to connect the elements with bolts so that it is possible to disassemble the structure for the winter. The optimal shape of the greenhouse is arched. To create it, the ends of the pipes are put on half-meter metal bars driven into the sides of the future greenhouse every meter. The dimensions of the greenhouse depend on the intended use. The greenhouse can be installed on the foundation or on the ground. Film, polycarbonate or agrofibre can be used as a covering material.
Plastic sewer pipes can also become a container for growing flowers, herbs and vegetables. Very often they are used to create vertical gardens.
To fence the site, you can use a low fence made of plastic pipes, which is durable and has minimal maintenance requirements (it does not need to be painted every year).
The use of plastic pipes is not limited to the ideas presented. This material is so versatile and easy to assemble (easy to cut, bend, has a variety of connecting parts) that it is simply impossible to ignore it in your home workshop.
PVC pipes are the best option not only for plumbing, but also for making DIY crafts. How often does it happen after repairs that there are several segments that are a pity to throw away, and so they lie at home or in the country and wait in the wings? This situation is familiar to many, so we free up space and create original crafts from pipes for our house and plot.
Pipe connection options
Plastic pipes are a generic name for products for creating a plumbing, sewerage and heating system, which are made from various polymers, most often PVC or polypropylene. Such pipes differ in a lot of advantages, including high strength, lightness, durability, safety and ease of maintenance.
In order to carry out crafts of such a plan, it is important to know how to connect their individual parts to form the intended design. Polypropylene pipes are interconnected using a welding machine, which is very expensive, so renting it is the best option. But you still need to learn how to work with such a device, so fittings are more often used for these purposes.
If we talk about plastic pipes, then most often they mean PVC products, which are connected by such options:
After familiarizing yourself with the technology of connecting plastic pipes, you can perform any craft. It is only important to initially draw a sketch of what you want to get in the end, indicating all the dimensions and design elements of the craft.
On your own, you can create unique crafts from pipes that will delight the owner with their appearance and practicality, and to a greater extent surprise guests.
Organizer
This craft is the easiest way to use plastic pipes. If there are only small pipe cuts, then they will fit perfectly into the overall idea. To make a mobile organizer, you just need to glue pipe sections of the right size together in the intended sequence and decorate the structure. This storage option will always keep the workplace in order.
The second option for a craft organizer is a stationary one. In this case, the craft blank is mounted on a horizontal surface or wall. This is how you get niches for various little things, created with your own hands from pipes.
Frame or room divider
If there is a desire to decorate the wall of the house with a mirror, but it does not have a suitable frame, it is not necessary to spend money on buying a new one. To perform it, you will need to cut pipes of different diameters into thin rings. On paper, you need to draw a layout of the future craft in real size and collect it directly on it from pipe scraps. You can create both a strict geometric frame and a set of randomly scattered rings. As a result, the resulting pipe craft can be painted in the desired shade or decorated, depending on the owner's imagination.
Thus, it is easy to create a decorative partition from pipes, which can decorate not only the interior of the house, but also the suburban area. Efforts, of course, will have to make more, but they are worth it.
Shoe rack or wine rack
The situation with a bunch of shoes in the corner of the hallway is familiar to many, but there is not always a place to install a full-fledged shoe cabinet. In this case, you can dream up and make a craft-shoe rack made of plastic pipes. To do this, you will need to take pieces of pipe with a diameter sufficient to fit a pair of shoes, and cut them into pieces about 30 cm long.
Important! It is best to connect the components of the craft with self-tapping screws, so that the design is as reliable and durable as possible.
The assembled product must be fixed on the wall to prevent falling. Such a shoe rack is compact and in appearance is no worse than purchased organizers for shoes.
This technology can be applied to the construction of bathroom shelves, a wine bottle holder and even a place to place children's toys.
Vases and planters
From scraps of sewer pipes, you can make craft pots that are perfect for planting flowers in them and placing them in a summer cottage. If you first attach the bottom to the blanks, for example, from a plastic bucket, or simply provide them with a stand, then you can even put such pots indoors.
Crafts-vases made of pipes of small diameter look stylish. When placing several blanks of different heights, decorated using the decoupage technique, you get a spectacular place for cut plants.
Stands and shelves
If a country house or garage needs to be equipped, then creating PVC pipe shelves will be an excellent alternative to buying massive wooden products. To form this kind of crafts from pipes, you will need to connect the segments in a certain sequence.
So, snake-shaped shelves are suitable for storing books and photo albums. It is also convenient to hang clothes or towels on them.
Crafts-stands for flowers look no less creative. In the manufacturing process, special attention is paid to the places of fixing parts to each other and the reliability of the structure. You will also additionally need pieces of plywood or other material to make countertops in fake pipes.
garden arch
Such products, entwined with plants, look sophisticated and elegant on the site. They are able to decorate even any celebration. For example, if you decorate such an arch with satin ribbons, flowers, tulle, then this will be an excellent decoration for an outdoor wedding ceremony or photo shoot. And making crafts does not take much time.
There are many options for arches, so the design of the craft is selected in accordance with the wishes of the master. The main difficulty in the formation of this craft is the need to bend some parts of the pipes. The easiest way to do this is to slightly heat the desired section of the pipe with a gas burner.
If this is not possible, then the connection of pipes for crafts is carried out simply at an angle. In this case, a trapezoid or a triangle is formed. They make an arch with two vaults so that there are transverse elements between them, which during operation will help the greenery to be distributed over the entire surface of this craft.
Alcove
Not only small products can be made from pipes. For example, a gazebo made of this material will be an excellent option to complement the resting place. To do this, you need to take long segments, form arcs from them and fix them in the ground. A dense awning fabric is stretched between them as a roof, and in the interior space a dining table or a bench for relaxation is installed. So, without spending extra time and money, you can create a masterpiece gazebo that will save you from the summer heat.
Advice! You can connect the elements of the craft so that you get a house. This is also an interesting version of a large PVC pipe craft.
Plant containers
If the summer cottage does not have a sufficient area, then vertical plantings are the best option for saving space. In this way, it is easy to grow greens, flowers, and even some varieties of berries.
To do this, you need to form a semblance of oblong flower pots from sewer pipes. You can get them by making holes along the craft and leaving enough space for the soil and plants. At the bottom of each craft, holes are made for the outflow of water. It is convenient to mount such planters on a pre-prepared wooden stand, directly on a wall or on a fence. If you connect these beds with a thick rope, you get a single structure that can simply be hung.
Lamp
Interesting DIY crafts are suitable for modern interiors. One of these interior details can be a lamp made of plastic pipes. The product can be of completely different shapes, the main thing is the correct connection and the ability to connect electricity for crafts. It is worth taking on the formation of such crafts only if you have skills in working with electricity.
It is not even necessary to connect the elements of the craft with each other. If you take pipe sections of different lengths and cut holes of different configurations on them, you will get a unique lamp that will leave fancy patterns on the walls.
Coffee table
If you want to arrange a garden area or update the furniture of the veranda, plastic pipes can also become the base material. It is not difficult to make a coffee table from them. First of all, they draw a draft of the future crafts and, following it, form the frame of the table. It can be different, both assembled from many parts, and representing several segments mounted on a stand.
As a countertop for crafts, as a rule, glass or a sheet of plywood is used. Decorate it as you wish. The glass top looks spectacular and stylish, but it will need to be additionally fixed to the frame.
